This species is most closely relatetl to proJioscuJeus, from which 
it may be distinguished l)y the broader form, smaller female 
genital lobes, as viewed from above, longer second antennal 
segment, etc., as detailed in the table of species. Type s))ecimens 
have been compared with types of j)r()h<)sci(leus alker and Intc- 
olus Fyles by Messrs. Blair and Moore respectively, and pro- 
nounced distinct. 
21. Aradus (Aradusi furvus sj). nov. (Plate III, fig;. 21.) 
Dcscriptioti . — Dark brown, with pale markings variable in extent and in- 
tensity; extreme apices of second and third antennal segments pale; ])ro- 
notum more or less yellowish postero-laterally ; l)asal exi)ansions and veins 
of corinin variably pale; membrane smoky brown, basal si)ot and veins white; 
connexivum vaguely marked with dark and light s])ots, but without distinct 
vittae; inner margins of genital lobes very narrowly pale; legs, rostrum, and 
ventral surface nearly uniform brown. 
Structure as in prohnscideus, exce])t as tollows: Head a little longer than 
pronotum (32 to 2S); tylus slightly l)ulbous; antenniferous si)ines very 
small and slender, shorter than the tub(‘rcles which bear them, slightly diver- 
gent, with small but distinct lateral tooth; antennae (fig. 21c) of slightly 
dilferent shape, the second segment as long as width ol hea<l including both 
eyes; rostrum extending to ai)ex of mesosternum. l^ronotum (fig. 21d) with 
lateral margins reflexed; carinae feebly develo])ed. Scutellum very large, 
triangular, width ecpial to three-fourths length, much longer than head (40 
to ;12) or {ironotum; sides very slightly arcuate, slightly and evenly elevated; 
apex narrowl}’ rounded; disc with very low elevation before middle. Henii- 
elytra (cf) extending over base of genital lobes, corium to middle of fourth 
seginent; (9) nearly to dorsal genital segment, more than one-half width 
of abdomen at a])ex of corium, nearly covering abdominal disc; membrane 
broadly rounded at a])ex. 
d' (fig. 21b). Fifth ventral segment distinctly longer than sixth; genital 
segment small, strongly convex, lolres long; abdomen oval, the marginal 
notches small. Length, 7. .5 mm. 
9 (fig. 21e). Dorsal genital segment almost twice as broad as long (30 
to 10), anterior margin sinuate; lobes rounded i)osteriorly ; abdomen evenly 
oval, one-half broader than ])ronotum (90 to GO); lateral margins almost 
entire. Length, 8..') mm.
